Method
-
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
-
Step 2
Line an 8x8 or 9x9 baking dish with baking paper or foil.
-
Step 3
Combine almond meal, 1 egg whit. whisked, stevia, salt, yogurt, lemon zest, vanilla and butter together in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix with the whisk attachment or with an electric beater until sandy like crumbs begin to form.
-
Step 4
Press the crumbs into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
-
Step 5
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until browned along the edges.
-
Step 6
While the crust is baking, whisk together the filling ingredients until well combined and starting to froth slightly.
-
Step 7
Once done, remove the crust from the oven and pour the filling over the top. Don't make the mistake I did... allow any froth to settle before baking for another 20 minutes or until the filling is set and doesn't jiggle when the dish is gently shaken.
-
Step 8
Allow to cool completely and cut into 9 equal squares. Top with a little powdered sugar for garnish of desired!
-
Step 9
Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container.
